The Guilt-offering for questionable guilt

Leviticus 5:17 "Though he did not know it [if he sinned for sure], yet he is guilty, and shall bear his iniquity"

If a person is unsure if he committed any of the forty-three acts punishable by Karet (see above, Positive Mitzvah 69), he is commanded to bring this offering for his questionable guilt.
